This week is Marlins‘ week with our podcast featuring the Florida Marlins being released on Friday, August 26th. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of the Caribbean and the United States East Coast in harm’s way of Hurricane Irene.

During our next podcast, Ed Kasputis will interview Dave Matejczyk who visited the New York Mets baseball academy in the Dominican Republic earlier this month. During his interview, Matejczyk described the Dominican Republic as “baseball heaven. Let’s pray that “baseball heaven” is protected from Irene’s wrath.

The Florida Marlins are counting the days until they move into their beautiful new ballpark in 2012. The Marlins currently play in Sun Life Stadium which is a multi-purpose stadium located in Miami Gardens. In 2012, the Marlins will be moving to Miami and playing in a ballpark with a retractable dome. No more rain outs or rain delays!

Ed Kasputis will be interviewing Greg Sherlock, lead designer for this project during our podcast featuring the Florida Marlins. This podcast will be released on Friday, August 20th.

The Little League World Series consists of 16 teams with 8 teams being from the United States. The World Series will take place from August 20 -29. Ed Kasputis and Mark Rantala will be reporting live from Williamsport on Saturday, August 21st.
